Part time work affects many people negatively especially young adults and single parents. It is hard for youngs adults that can only find a part time job because they need to live on their own and pay for the cost of living with only a low salary. Part time work can also really affect single parents because they only have one income to pay for all the basic needs. For example single parents need to pay for the house, food, electricity, gas, insurance, things for their kids etc and the pay for part time is generally lower. Also when you work part time they may be asked to work at times that are not convenient for them. When single parents work part-time jobs and are not able to make enough money for all their basic needs it can affect their kids negatively too because they might have to cut back on after school activities or be able to afford what other kids have, which means they would be in relative poverty.
